And they were afraid: hearing that they were Romans. ³⁹ And coming, they besought them: and bringing them out, they desired them to depart out of the city.

²¹ Because that, when they knew God, they have not glorified him as God or given thanks: but became vain in their thoughts. And their foolish heart was darkened.

²³ For all have sinned and do need the glory of God.

⁷ Because the wisdom of the flesh is an enemy to God. For it is not subject to the law of God: neither can it be. ⁸ And they who are in the flesh cannot please God.

²⁰ For the creature was made subject to vanity: not willingly, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope. ²¹ Because the creature also itself shall be delivered from the servitude of corruption, into the liberty of the glory of the children of God. ²² For we know that every creature groaneth and travaileth in pain, even till now.

²⁵ But if we hope for that which we see not, we wait for it with patience.

² And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us and hath delivered himself for us, an oblation and a sacrifice to God for an odour of sweetness.

¹⁰ We have an altar whereof they have no power to eat who serve the tabernacle.

¹⁵ By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise always to God, that is to say, the fruit of lips confessing to his name. ¹⁶ And do not forget to do good and to impart: for by such sacrifices God's favour is obtained.
